I would like to know if there are any good spelling and/or grammar checkers
under MS-DOS that won't gag on TeX files.  I am trying to write a book with
lots of indexing, font changes, and the like, and don't want to have to do
a second pass just to put in the TeX stuff.  I have Grammatik III, and use
it with WordPerfect.  This is fine, I get to spell/grammar check my work
frequently, and get fast hardcopies, but is a stopgap measure.

I have seen (and downloaded) wp2latex, but haven't yet tried it out.  Is there
any comments on it, specifically does it handle footnotes, indexing, and
simple lists properly?
